Out former NFL player Wade Davis wrote
about meeting Tyree, saying he believes he's “evolving. Just
as my mother did. Just as some of our most well-known supporters
did. Just as I did.”

“I think he feels badly about the
stuff he said three years ago,” Davis said.

“My interactions with Wade over the
past few months are much more representative of my current beliefs
toward the gay community than some tweets from several years ago,”
Tyree is quoted as saying. “Christianity teaches us love,
compassion, and respect for our fellow man, and it is in that light
that I will continue to work with Wade and others to better serve the
gay community. I would absolutely support any player on the Giants
who identified as gay, in any way I could. And I will continue to
stay in touch with Wade to ensure I am aware of the right ways to do
that.”
